Name That Tune, Game Forty-Five

The Rules:

  • MAXIMUM THREE GUESSES between updates of the list, to give everyone a chance to play. An update of the list is when I post the entire list of correct guesses with the words “OFFICIAL UPDATE.” “Guess” is officially defined as “attempting to identify any one song.” Therefore, one comment that lists three songs counts as three guesses.
  • While I’m not going to be a stickler for spelling and punctuation, you must guess the correct musician and song title to a close approximation.

How the game is played: I have uploaded twenty-five very brief song clips. Please bear in mind that both my record collection and knowledge of music are probably 5% of that of Scraps’, so these quizzes won’t be nearly as comprehensive – or even hit-based – as his were. I will use mostly well-known songs, but I reserve the right to use something obscure if it suits my needs, like it does this week. Live versions and covers are also fair game, though I will stay away from remixes, because that’s just mean.

There is a puzzle this week, and the songs in the game will offer a (painfully obvious) clue as to the puzzle song’s identity.

Good news, everyone! We’re doing Name That Tune again this week, and for purely silly reasons. See, if you look at the game numbers, you’ll see that Cover Me is a game ahead of Name That Tune. So I’m running another NTT so the game numbers are even. Cover Me will be back next week.
